Public Defender calls on government to clarify rules of treatment of infected people at home

According to the Public Defender of Georgia, Nino Lomjaria, the rules of treatment of coronavirus at home are not clear to the population. The Public Defender posted a statement about the above issue on the social network.

Nino Lomjaria calls on the government and relevant agencies to clarify these rules as soon as possible and provide primary medical advice that the infected person should be guided by.

"Obviously, the rules of treatment at home in case of infection are not clear to the population. Numerous infected people claim to be unable to receive medical care for days. Given the difficult situation, the Public Defender of Georgia calls on the Government of Georgia and relevant agencies to explain to the population as soon as possible: how to be treated at home in case a person is infected with Covid. More precisely, who and at what time is obliged to contact the patient; how and how often patients should be supervised by appropriate medical staff; which specific agency is overseeing this process so that patients can be informed of existing problems and receive timely assistance”, reads the statement of the Public Defender.
